The Ooni of Ife, Oba Adeyeye Ogunwusi, Ojaja II, has said that there was no  time he was promised a private jet by Governorship aspirant of the People’s Democratic Party, (PDP),Senator Ademola Adeleke.

The social media has been awash with news that the politician promised to provide private jet for the Ife monarch if elected as Osun state Governor in 2022.

The Senator has since denied making such a statement. His speech, he said, was turned upside down, and inside out.

A statement by the Director of Media and Public Affairs of the Ooni of Ife’s Palace, Moses Olafare, in Ile-Ife, urged the general public to disregard the viral report.

“There was no such report issued from the palace despite the fact that the politician’s speech was twisted by some writers with hidden intentions, including to drag the respected stool of the Ooni in the mud.

“The truth can be sought from videos that emanated from the visit. Ooni’s singular request was for a credible election, devoid of crisis for the betterment of all, which the PDP chieftain agreed to.

“It is the usual character of all political office aspirants and party’s candidates without exception, including the visiting Adeleke, to make several promises like the reconstruction of roads in Ile-Ife and completion of the Osun State Airport project at Ido-Osun, among others.

“Sadly, these developmental bullet points were mischievously ignored in the viral news reports.

“On the controversial ‘Private Jet’, it is a common knowledge that the Adeleke family has a fleet of private planes which could have been the basis for the governorship hopeful to have lightly said : Royal Father, private jet you may need for your trips are readily available.”
